It almost went over! I felt I can't finish it anymore.
This is my second semester for the PTC program at University of the Philippines- Open University. In this semester, I struggled a lot.
This is the first time that I was disappointed with myself as a student. I am always chill on making my preparations. There are a lot of problems that I encounter- family problems where I will almost be the breadwinner, work where we have no summer as we faced a lot of accreditations done by AACCUP for our department, and life where I struggled managing my time. All in all, it is like I had more than five submissions that I passed late including this article. I feel so dumb, mediocre, and giving everything up. However, with all these struggles, I still got a lot of things that I've learned.
Learning this course gives me good morale and boost my confidence in teaching. Learning theories of learning is an essential topic for an instructor to learn. As an educator, it gives me insights and understanding to the classroom setting with the use of behaviorism, constructivism, cognitivism and information- processing. These learning theories help me to craft learning activities as well as assessments for my students to give them the quality of education that they deserved.
With this, I observed that I am now more effective in imparting my knowledge to them using my knowledge in this PTC program. I am still looking forward to more journey for the last semester. I need to reorganize myself in order not to have late submissions in the next semester.
Currently, I feel relieved that this will be the last thing to do for this course. However, I am threatened not to pass this course. The struggle is real in my life. However, with God's grace and determination not to surrender. I will make this life keep going and seek to pass the licensure examination in the future.
All I can say right now is, I survived!
